Mary & May Vegan Blackberry Complex Cream Essence

Description

This product comes in a bottle with two distinct layers: a lighter, watery essence layer and a richer, creamy layer. Before each use, you shake the bottle vigorously to mix these two phases into a silky, milky emulsion. This “Double Phase Emulsion” technology is key to its efficacy, allowing for the rapid absorption of concentrated nutrients without a heavy or sticky feel, balancing moisture and oil in the skin.

• Blackberry Extract (50,000 ppm): This is a star ingredient, rich in anthocyanins, which are powerful antioxidants. Anthocyanins help to protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals, a major contributor to premature aging. This high concentration provides significant anti-aging benefits, helping to maintain skin youthfulness and vitality.
• Blue Lotus Water (Nymphaea Caerulea Flower Water – 100,000 ppm): Known for its excellent moisturizing and soothing properties. Blue Lotus has been used traditionally for its emollient and skin-conditioning qualities, helping to keep the skin hydrated, soft, and improve its elasticity.
• Jojoba Seed Oil (often around 80,000 ppm): This oil is highly compatible with the skin’s natural sebum, meaning it’s less likely to clog pores. It forms a protective moisturizing film on the skin, strengthens the skin barrier, and provides steady, long-lasting hydration.
• Centella Asiatica Extract (Cica): A well-known soothing and healing ingredient that helps to calm irritated skin, reduce redness, and support the skin’s natural repair processes.
• Ceramide NP: A crucial lipid that helps to restore and maintain the skin’s natural barrier. Ceramides are essential for preventing moisture loss and protecting the skin from external aggressors, leading to healthier and more resilient skin.
• Sodium Hyaluronate: A form of hyaluronic acid, which is a powerful humectant that attracts and retains moisture in the skin, contributing to plumpness and reducing dehydration lines.

The Mary & May Vegan Blackberry Complex Cream Essence is certified vegan and cruelty-free. It’s formulated with EWG Green Grade ingredients (excluding fragrance if any, though many sources state it’s fragrance-free) and is free from common irritants such as parabens, artificial fragrances, alcohol, mineral oil, and other potential allergens. It has also undergone dermatological testing, making it suitable for all skin types, including dry, sensitive, oily, and combination skin, particularly those looking for anti-aging and intense hydration without heaviness.

Regular use of this cream essence aims to:

• Provide deep and long-lasting hydration.
• Strengthen the skin barrier, leading to less dryness and discomfort.
• Offer antioxidant protection, combating signs of aging.
• Improve skin elasticity and firmness.
• Balance the skin’s oil-water content, promoting a healthy complexion.
• Leave the skin feeling refreshed, moisturized, and supple.

How to Use:

1. Shake Well: Before each use, thoroughly shake the bottle to ensure the cream layer and essence layer are completely mixed into a milky emulsion. This is a crucial step to activate the “Double Phase Emulsion” technology.
2. Cleanse and Tone: After cleansing your face, apply your preferred toner.
3. Dispense Amount: Pour an appropriate amount of the mixed cream essence onto your palm (usually 2-3 pumps or a small coin-sized amount).
4. Apply to Face: Gently apply the essence evenly over your entire face and neck.
5. Pat for Absorption: Lightly pat your skin to aid in absorption until the product is fully absorbed.
6. Follow with Moisturizer (Optional): Depending on your skin type and needs, you can follow with an additional moisturizer, though for many, this product provides sufficient hydration.
7. Frequency: Can be used both morning and evening as part of your daily skincare routine.
